Game description

For this version of the cockfight, you divide the entire group into teams of twos each. It is recommended that always and a smaller and a larger kid team up because the smaller one will sit on the other kid’s shoulders. However, before the game really can start, everyone has to pad himself with as many as possible sponges to protect himself from injuries. Also, the game is best played on a rubber foam matt. The objective here too is, to get the opponent to fall down through pushing and shoving. If every team had a go, the kids have to regroup into winners and losers. The new objective is, all winners and all losers play against each other. At the end, the winner is the one who successfully fought all other kids.

Judging

The winner of the cockfight is the kid, which got the most opponents to fall.
